A quick connect system for a hitch receiver of a vehicle includes a hanger plate and an adapter plate. The hanger plate includes a hanger base portion configured to attach to the hitch receiver. First and second hanger side flanges extend rearwardly from opposing sides of the hanger base portion. The top surfaces of the hanger side flanges are each contoured to form a recessed seat section. The adapter plate includes an adapter base portion. First and second adapter side flanges extend rearwardly from opposing sides of the adapter base portion. A hanger bar extends between the adapter side flanges. A latching mechanism is attached to the adapter base portion. The hanger bar is configured to fit into the recessed seat sections to enable the adapter plate to pivot against the hanger plate and to removably latch the latching mechanism to the hanger plate.
